When you are in San Diego, make it a point to travel to Coronado Island. Visit the iconic Hotel Del Coronado and take a walk on the beach. You will likely find a sandcastle or two, and if you are lucky, you will get to meet Bill Pavlacka, the Sandcastle Man. Bill often spends eight hours or more creating sand sculptures. To see examples of his castle art, you can visit his website here.
Whether the work in this photograph is his or belongs to someone else is unknown to me. Since it’s not a sand castle, I suspect it’s not. But as it turned out, this sculpture featured a San Diego sunset where my castle photos were taken earlier in the day. I felt this image would make a better subject converted to the 3D popout effect. You can find out more about Coronado Island and Bill Pavlacka if you visit my original blog post here.
